Very cool Bish!

Taken a while to get this painted and decals on, mainly because of all the work on the victor, but i have finally got there. I used Xtracolor Camoflage grey and then added some medium sea grey for the nose, top of the tail and the leading adges to the tail and forward stabilizer's.





I know the exhausts should be open when its on the ground, but the only place that had the open ones was a site in Germany and they wanted £20 just for postage. these cost less than 20 with postage from Poland. I don't normally skimp when i need something for a kit but that was just to much.

And then the decals went on. The left side serial broke up completly. I was able to use the first 3 digits from the serial for the other marking option, but i had no numbers in the right size for the rest so i painted on the 2 and 1.







Next i'll give it a gloss coat to seal the decals before some light weathering. In the meantime i can get the decals on the Victor.

Shame about the serial breaking but you did a fine job painting them in - it's looking excellent Bish!

Now you're getting like me for decals

It looks great Bish!

Thanks guys. I think the decals reacted to the Microset. I had close calls with a few others.

Great save on the numbers! Another great looking build!

And there you show your incredible skill! Those numbers look like the decals, way to go!

Beautiful job on this jet so far!

Thanks guys.

Looking very sharp Bish. I’m surprised that the RAF has not gone to toned down or grayed out squadron markings to match the low vis roundels and scheme.
